Full list

All 27 Hosting & DevOps services

Every one is a real page with its own scope, timeline, tools and deliverables — not a keyword in a list. Each also says plainly when it is the wrong thing to buy.

Before you ask us

Work out the shape of a hosting & devops project yourself

Three questions, no email address, no call. You get the scope written out — what is included, what is not, and what we would need from you — which you are free to take to another agency and compare. It is genuinely useful on its own, which is the only reason anyone finishes one of these.

  • What you are building, and on which platform
  • How much already exists, and what has to be migrated
  • Which parts you want us to own and which stay with you

What you get at the end is a written scope, not a price plucked from a range. We do not publish project prices because a price without a scope is a guess — and a guess published as a price is one that gets revised upwards later.

Build your scopeHow we quote, in full

In detail

Hosting & DevOps: what the work actually involves

Infrastructure work is judged on the days nothing happens. We build for boring: reproducible environments, deploys that roll back cleanly, backups that have actually been restored at least once, and alerts that go to a person rather than an unread inbox.

What you get from hosting & devops work

  • Deploys that are routine rather than an event
  • Infrastructure described in code, not in someone memory
  • Backups tested by restoring them, not just scheduled
  • Monitoring and alerting wired to a real on-call route

Signs this is what you need

If none of these sound like you, this probably is not the work to buy — and we will say so.

  • Deploys happen at midnight because everyone expects breakage
  • One person knows how the server is configured and they are on holiday
  • The site goes down and you find out from a customer
  • Your hosting bill grows and nobody can explain which service caused it

What we deliver, every time

  • Current-state review and target architecture for VPS Setup
  • Provisioning with infrastructure as code where it fits
  • Environment separation across development, staging and production
  • Deployment pipeline with rollback and health checks
  • Monitoring, log aggregation and alert routing
  • Runbook covering deploys, incidents and recovery
  • Current-state review and target architecture for AWS Infrastructure
  • Current-state review and target architecture for Azure Infrastructure
  • Current-state review and target architecture for Google Cloud Infrastructure

Most people arrive here knowing what is wrong but not what the work is called, which is completely normal. Find the row that sounds like your situation. If none of them do, message us and we will tell you which hosting & devops service fits — including when the honest answer is that none of them do.

How it runs

How hosting & devops work actually runs

  1. 01

    Audit what exists

    Current hosting, deploy process, backups and single points of failure — documented before anything changes.

  2. 02

    Right-size

    Most setups are either overpaying for idle capacity or one traffic spike from falling over. We size for reality.

  3. 03

    Automate deploys

    A pipeline anyone on your team can run, with a rollback that has actually been tested.

  4. 04

    Monitor and alert

    Uptime, errors and cost alerts pointed at a human who can act on them.

Managed platforms unless you have a specific reason not to — self-hosting is a staffing commitment, not a saving.

Straight answer

When not to hire us for this

We would rather lose the enquiry here than three weeks in.

  • You want the cheapest hosting regardless of reliability. We will quote what stays up.
  • You need 24/7 on-call incident response. We build and hand over; we are not a managed NOC.
  • The application itself is the bottleneck. Infrastructure cannot outrun bad queries.

Example builds

Start small if you want to

Three ways to start with hosting & devops

You do not have to pick the exact service first. Tell us the problem and we will point at the one that fits — or tell you it is not worth doing yet.

Smallest step

Ask one question

Send us the thing you are unsure about — whether hosting & devops work is even the right work, or whether what you already have is close enough. You get a straight answer, not a proposal.

Free · usually answered same working day

Middle step

Get it looked at properly

We review what you have against how hosting & devops work normally runs, and tell you what is actually worth doing.

Findings in writing · no obligation to book the work

Full engagement

Book the hosting & devops work work

One fixed price for the agreed scope, written down before anything starts.

Typically 1–6 weeks · price agreed before work starts

What to send so the first reply is useful

  • Your URL, or the platform you are on
  • One sentence on what you want hosting & devops work to change
  • Any date that matters, and why it matters
  • Whether anyone is already working on it

You do not need a brief, a budget or a spec. If hosting & devops work turns out not to be what you need, we will say so and point you at the platform & infrastructure work that is — even where that is less for us to invoice.

Get a fixed priceHosting & DevOps work

Cloud, pipelines and infrastructure that stays up. Tell us where you are now and we will recommend the specific service that fits — with a written scope and a fixed price.

  • No discovery fee, no deposit to hold a slot, and no retainer attached to a build.
  • We usually reply within a couple of hours in working time.
  • We write the scope down and attach one fixed price to it, before any work starts.

Questions

1328 hosting & devops questions, answered

Including the ones with awkward answers. If yours is not here, message us — we answer in writing before anyone books a call.

What is VPS Setup?

VPS Setup is a hosting & devops service from Livin Services. In one line: get a hardened, properly configured server without paying enterprise cloud rates. It's a defined piece of work with an agreed finish line, not an open-ended retainer, so you know what you're buying before you commit to it.

What is included in VPS Setup?

VPS Setup covers current-state review and target architecture for vps setup, provisioning with infrastructure as code where it fits, environment separation across development, staging and production, deployment pipeline with rollback and health checks, monitoring, log aggregation and alert routing and runbook covering deploys, incidents and recovery. All of that gets written down before we start, so you know exactly what's landing and what isn't. Anything outside the list gets quoted separately — we won't quietly absorb it and we won't quietly bill for it either.

What is not included in VPS Setup?

Anything not named in the written scope. In practice that usually means ongoing management after handover, content and copy you have not supplied, third-party licence and subscription costs, and work in other disciplines — those are separate services with their own scopes. We list exclusions explicitly rather than leaving them to be discovered halfway through.

Who is VPS Setup for?

It fits teams where deploys happen at midnight because everyone expects breakage. The goal is simple: get a hardened, properly configured server without paying enterprise cloud rates. If your situation is different, tell us and we will point you at the hosting & devops service that actually fits — including one we do not sell.

When should I not buy VPS Setup?

When the underlying problem sits somewhere else. Buying VPS Setup to fix something it does not touch is expensive and disappointing in equal measure. Tell us what outcome you are actually after and we will say plainly whether this is the right service, a different one, or nothing at all right now.

How is this different from hiring a freelancer for VPS Setup?

A good freelancer is often the right answer for a narrow, well-defined task, and cheaper. What an agency adds is continuity when someone is unavailable, a second pair of eyes on decisions, and accountability that survives the individual. Judge it on whether your project needs those things — plenty do not.

Do you offer VPS Setup as an ongoing retainer?

This service is scoped as a defined piece of work with a handover at the end, which is deliberate: it means the engagement has a finish line rather than drifting into an indefinite monthly cost. If you need continuing support afterwards we can arrange it, but it is a separate agreement you enter knowingly.

How many rounds of revisions are included in VPS Setup?

Revisions within the agreed scope are part of the work, not a numbered allowance to be rationed. What is charged separately is a change of direction — new requirements, a reversed decision, or work outside what was scoped. The distinction is written into the scope so it is not decided by argument later.

Is VPS Setup worth it for a small business?

Sometimes, and sometimes not — it depends on whether the thing it fixes is actually what is holding you back. Smaller scopes are quoted the same way as large ones, with no minimum engagement, so size is not the barrier. Being honest about whether this is your highest-leverage move is more useful to you than a yes.

What is AWS Infrastructure?

AWS Infrastructure is a hosting & devops service from Livin Services. In one line: use the right AWS services instead of the ones the tutorial mentioned. It's a defined piece of work with an agreed finish line, not an open-ended retainer, so you know what you're buying before you commit to it.

Tell us what outcome you are actually after and we will say plainly whether this is the right service, a different one, or nothing at all right now.

How is this different from hiring a freelancer for Backup & Disaster Recovery?

A good freelancer is often the right answer for a narrow, well-defined task, and cheaper. What an agency adds is continuity when someone is unavailable, a second pair of eyes on decisions, and accountability that survives the individual. Judge it on whether your project needs those things — plenty do not.

Do you offer Backup & Disaster Recovery as an ongoing retainer?

This service is scoped as a defined piece of work with a handover at the end, which is deliberate: it means the engagement has a finish line rather than drifting into an indefinite monthly cost. If you need continuing support afterwards we can arrange it, but it is a separate agreement you enter knowingly.

How many rounds of revisions are included in Backup & Disaster Recovery?

Revisions within the agreed scope are part of the work, not a numbered allowance to be rationed. What is charged separately is a change of direction — new requirements, a reversed decision, or work outside what was scoped. The distinction is written into the scope so it is not decided by argument later.

Is Backup & Disaster Recovery worth it for a small business?

Sometimes, and sometimes not — it depends on whether the thing it fixes is actually what is holding you back. Smaller scopes are quoted the same way as large ones, with no minimum engagement, so size is not the barrier. Being honest about whether this is your highest-leverage move is more useful to you than a yes.

Who is Nginx Configuration for?

It fits teams where deploys happen at midnight because everyone expects breakage. The goal is simple: tune the layer every request passes through before anything else. If your situation is different, tell us and we will point you at the hosting & devops service that actually fits — including one we do not sell.

When should I not buy Nginx Configuration?

When the underlying problem sits somewhere else. Buying Nginx Configuration to fix something it does not touch is expensive and disappointing in equal measure. Tell us what outcome you are actually after and we will say plainly whether this is the right service, a different one, or nothing at all right now.

How is this different from hiring a freelancer for Nginx Configuration?

A good freelancer is often the right answer for a narrow, well-defined task, and cheaper. What an agency adds is continuity when someone is unavailable, a second pair of eyes on decisions, and accountability that survives the individual. Judge it on whether your project needs those things — plenty do not.

Do you offer Nginx Configuration as an ongoing retainer?

This service is scoped as a defined piece of work with a handover at the end, which is deliberate: it means the engagement has a finish line rather than drifting into an indefinite monthly cost. If you need continuing support afterwards we can arrange it, but it is a separate agreement you enter knowingly.

How many rounds of revisions are included in Nginx Configuration?

Revisions within the agreed scope are part of the work, not a numbered allowance to be rationed. What is charged separately is a change of direction — new requirements, a reversed decision, or work outside what was scoped. The distinction is written into the scope so it is not decided by argument later.

Is Nginx Configuration worth it for a small business?

Sometimes, and sometimes not — it depends on whether the thing it fixes is actually what is holding you back. Smaller scopes are quoted the same way as large ones, with no minimum engagement, so size is not the barrier. Being honest about whether this is your highest-leverage move is more useful to you than a yes.
